Can it be used for repelling? (150 lbs)

Rothco is spec'd at a sustainable rate buy myself I would rely on 5/16" or 3/8" for repelling as the polyester cover is better suited for wear. since safety standards are typically 75% of rating you would only repel once and only in an emergency situation. Any failure would be at the knot point as the stress there would exceed the cord specification not in all likelyhood along the rope length.

The term is "rappelling" and no, this rope is not made for technical climbing. You should use only ropes bought at outdoor stores made specifically for climbing or caving for rappelling or doing any rope work involving body weight and your life.

I've never tried, but would not use it for that. It's designed to pull up archery equipment such as a bow at maybe 4-8 lbs. Not designed for people...

It should work if you can secure it adequately. Keep in mind the 180lb weight limit.

I imagine this wouldn't work well with your situation. Only 15" high and 70lbs is a lot of weight for this. I wouldn't advise on this particular product.

Absolutely not! It is not designed for that kind of weight. I don't remember the manufacturer weight recommendation but it is well below that. Weight limit was somewhere around 35lbs-50lbs I believe.

I would hesitate to hang more than 15 lb. provided that the fasteners used to attached the hook are rated at least that high.

This product is for one time use and is not for repelling. It catches you when you are sitting in a tree and fall but not meant for regular use. The rope itself is thick like repel rope but I don't know if its appropriate for that. The ropes seem like a very high quality (I just can't speak to it)

Yes it is strong enough for a 150 lb person to sit on. Very satisfied with my purchase. I love it!

Reginald, this will support anything 15 lbs or less. The cross bar extends 12 feet across. you may want to contact Savage company about the weight. We appreciate your inquiry.Regards,Alex G

No. Per the manufacturers guidance the weight limit is 150 lbs. Anything beyond that could be on a highway to the danger zone.

It is not for that purpose. I would say no it won't prevent a climber from climbing

While the cord does have a 550lb test strength, and your weight is only 150lbs you should theoretically be able to use this cord for repelling. The reason i say "theoretically" is because I have never personally tested this cord for repelling. However, You shouldn't have a problem. My only concern would be in case of a fall with the velocity of your weight being applied to the cord would it snap? I would suggest you research the testing on this cord. Another thing to think about is the fact that although the cord is very strong it is also very thin. Will it fray too quickly on stone?Hope this helps!

This mount will hold a lot of weight but at the cost of a lot of vibration. I would not use it on any moving object such as a vehicle or motorcycle, it picks up a lot of bumps and rattles.

I wouldn't put more than 15 to 20 lbs on it they are not real sturdy if you plan on rolling it around much. It works great for what I purchased it for

Yes it is, it can hold my friend who's over 200pounds. Barely leaves your foot print and the silhouette print quickly vanishes after use. It's also reversalable for use to give a slightly different angle.

I bought it for the lifting and supporting and did not try on a leash. It can be used that way but as already suggested, it might slip a bit for other than a calm walk. I don't think it is intended to aid in controlling a dog on a leash.

It is designed to withstand 850 pounds but that does not include a sudden jerk on the line which can triple the load. A 150 pound child should be fine depending on how long the descent is going to be. Or if the line will be left to weather etc.
